In Parenting, You Won't Always Get It Right The First Time. Here's How To Fix That With A 'Take Two'

“Why do you keep doing that?!” 😤

In parenting, remember that you don't always have to get it right the first time (impossible much!)

When you hear yourself wanting to do better, remember that...

...You can do a take two!

If you find your voice rising, or you find a harsh comment slipping out...

...and you wish that you didn't just say that, or you didn't just begin to shout...

🤚🏽Pause...

And take two! 🎬

You can say something like...

🔹"Ooh, I noticed my voice was beginning to rise, I'm sorry honey, let me try again..."

Or...

🔹"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that comment at all...let me pause and talk to you about it in a few minutes, inshaAllah."

We are human, we won't be perfect and that's okay...

We can do a take two ❤ 🎬

And as always, remember as you parent, that it’s not practice makes perfect, it’s practice makes progress ❤️
